Based upon the recently developed glue-lift collection of gunshot residue particles for examination in the scanning electron microscope with energy dispersive X-rays, this laboratory has undertaken a research program to determine if reconstruction of gunshot deaths is feasible. Because undisturbed conditions of suicide victims may help in securing unambiguous results and high success rates, the program has been carried out to reconstruct suicides only. Data obtained from 13 firearms suicides and their laboratory reconstruction which involved primarily shotguns and handguns, indicate that reconstruction can be immensely useful to interpretation of the gunshot residue distributions on a suspect's or victim's hands. This reports outlines the basic experiments performed to relate the residue emission from the gun to the deposits found on the firing hand(s) and a description of the reconstruction technique that uses a target to simulate a human body. The technique can determine the specifics of a victim's hand position at the time of firing and which hand was used to pull the trigger. Because the technique is sensitive to the nature of the grasp of the firing hand and of the supporting hand, in the case of a shotgun, it has been possible in all cases to date, to determine which one of the potential eight hand positions existed at the time of shooting.
基于最近开发的用于在扫描电子显微镜下结合能量色散X射线检查的枪击残留物颗粒的胶水提升采集方法，本实验室开展了一项研究计划，以确定重建枪击死亡情况是否可行。由于自杀受害者未受干扰的状况可能有助于获得明确的结果和高成功率，该计划仅针对自杀情况进行重建。从13起枪支自杀事件及其实验室重建中获得的数据（主要涉及猎枪和手枪）表明，重建对于解释嫌疑人或受害者手上的枪击残留物分布可能极为有用。本报告概述了为将枪支发射的残留物与在射击手上发现的沉积物相关联而进行的基础实验，以及对使用靶标模拟人体的重建技术的描述。该技术可以确定受害者在开枪时手部的具体位置以及使用哪只手扣动扳机。由于该技术对射击手和支撑手的握持方式很敏感，在猎枪的情况下，迄今为止在所有案例中都能够确定开枪时可能存在的八个手部位置中的哪一个。
